Thank goodness .......

Al took K to the dr yesterday - she doesn't have glandular fever !!! What a relief ! Am not sure what it was - dr said must have just been a viral thing (isn't that what they all say when they don't know something ????)
Anyway, today is here - I am at work trying frantically to get everything done - tax returns, reports run for May accounts and then sent out to campuses, Fiji accounts sorted out - and all those other good things that go with going on leave for two weeks - I keep saying to them that I will be back as I am sure there are things they are asking for which could wait !!!!!! At least we aren't working at Coles tonight so that is a bonus - I might even be able to get a chance to pack !!!!!!
My folks arrive back from their little holiday to Cairns so can't wait to see them tonight - mind you, it won't be for long as we also have to catch up with a guy getting back from Taiwan tonight to hopefully find out some more info re the contract for Al. Looks like he will be going at this stage - not something I want to think about just yet.
Yesterday was just a shocking day all round - everything that could have gone wrong did go wrong - work was just dreadful - the good news was about K so that was great. Foodwise - again, as it seems to be the only thing I have control over, I kept control over it although there were a few occasions when the snack machine was really shouting out my name !!!!! And, the biscuits (in the shops because if they had been in the office or the house I would definitely have answered) were just begging to be eaten - why is it that when things are a little difficult we think that if we eat something it will make it all better ??? Sort of like when your child cries you kiss the sore and say "There there it will be fine" - at least I have come to the realisation that if I eat when things are difficult, it just makes them more difficult because then I have to try to lose the excess weight I put on by eating when I didn't need to - I guess I should be proud of that !
